The Hollies - Poison Ivy lyrics

She comes up a rose And everybody knows She'll get you in dutch Well, you can look, but you'd better not touch Poison Ivy Poison Ivy Well, late at night when you're sleepin' Poison Ivy comes a-creepin' all around She's pretty as a daisy But look out, man, she's crazy She'll really do you in If you let her get under your skin Poison Ivy Poison Ivy Well, late at night when you're sleepin' Poison Ivy comes a-creepin' all around Measles make mumpy Mumps'll make you lumpy Chicken pox will make you jump and twitch Common cold'll cool you Whooping cough will fool you But Poison Ivy, Lord, will make you itch You're gonna need an ocean Of Calamine lotion You'll be scratching like a hound The minute you start to mess around Poison Ivy Poison Ivy Well, late at night when you're sleepin' Poison Ivy comes a-creepin' all around Poison Ivy Poison Ivy Well, late at night when you're sleepin' Poison Ivy comes a-creepin' all around Measles make mumpy Mumps'll make you lumpy Chicken pox will make you jump and twitch Common cold'll cool you Whooping cough will fool you But Poison Ivy, Lord, will make you itch You're gonna need an ocean Of Calamine lotion You'll be scratching like a hound The minute you start to mess around Poison Ivy Poison Ivy Well, late at night when you're sleepin' Poison Ivy comes a-creepin' all around
